Chapter 225: Misstep
In sight, a gentle-looking girl lifted a stone and slammed it on the top of his head.
Jiang Fengjun wanted to make a sound, but his throat seemed to be blocked by something.
It's her, like this autumn.
The stone fell to the ground, stained with blood.
Wan Jinqiu took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve, pulled off the cap, and put it under his nose.
In a few moments, countless insects rushed into the bottle.
Wan stood up this autumn, the winter moon was like mist, reflecting her face as white as paper.
Until she put away the porcelain vase, her hands seemed to be beginning to be conscious, and they were trembling.
She held on to the base of the wall, bit her lip, and wiped the blood on her hands with a handkerchief.
In the night, she raised her head slightly, and her eyes seemed to be hidden by the haze.
Aye, A-Niang, I'm homesick......
The third day of the Lunar New Year.
Liu Ruyan finally got her wish and returned to Liujiazhuang with an innocence, before leaving, the people in the city were mighty and sent her far, far away along the road.
The snow was mottled, and outside the long pavilion, she wore a robe, bowed deeply to everyone, and then stepped on the horse's back and galloped away.
Behind her was a carriage, Qiu Ying put down the curtains, and said with emotion: "I didn't expect this girl to have this kind of encounter, it's really strange and pitiful." ”
Gong Yuyu was silent.
On the eighth day of the first month, the snow stopped.
Liu Ruyan stood in front of the broken door plaque and walked into the courtyard with her head buried in it.
Qiu Ying looked at it as he walked: "It's all burned like this in this ghost place, and it can still live in people?" ”
Gong Yuyu couldn't help but glance at her, covered his mouth and coughed twice.
Liu Ruyan didn't look back: "I'll clean up and make a few rooms out." ”
In the next few days, Liu Ruyan took care of the courtyard and the outside, and she directly chopped the burnt wood into firewood, and kept it if it could be used, and took it to Gong Yuyu.
Gong Yuyu sat on the beams of the house, his hands kept moving, carefully repairing the roof.
Aki carried a basin of water and scrubbed the dirt from the room.
Angelica Angelica's skills are acceptable, and he has been busy in the kitchen.
Dong Qingxian also wanted to do some wooden work, but was rejected by everyone in seconds, so he had to resign himself to lifting the broom and sweeping the snow in the courtyard.
On the fifteenth Lantern Festival, Liujiazhuang ushered in several men dressed in bearded clothes.
Dong Qingxian had just finished his work when he heard movement outside, and from a distance, he saw a group of strangers walking up the stairs.
Liu Ruyan stepped out of the threshold, saw those young people, looked at the bones on the bamboo raft and under the white hemp, and couldn't help but feel sour in her heart.
These young men were scouts, and they survived by carrying out missions thousands of miles away. This time it was ordered by the emperor to bring the bones of the Liu family back to his hometown for burial.
Liu Ruyan returned to the valley this time, just to take care of the aftermath, she chose an auspicious day and buried the bones under a laurel tree in the courtyard.
Back then, this tree could still bury wine, and since Father Liu left, she buried Aya's clothes in the bottom of the tree.
Liu Ruyan used a shovel to dig through layers of frozen soil, and beside her, the scouts smashed open a pit of soil.
She glanced over and saw that a young man had not shoveled deep enough, so she reminded: "Xiao Yang, dig deeper into the soil." ”
The young man's back stiffened, and finally he whispered: "Big boss, I'm Xiao Jiang." ”
Liu Ruyan rolled her eyes and pulled the corners of her lips: "It's me who called the fork." ”
Xiao Yang and Uncle Quan have already gone to the cold spring, and they are still in the world.
Liu Ruyan stayed in the valley until the spring flowers bloomed, and then returned to Beijing.
Before the execution, she went to see it. The old monk did not reveal a single penny of Xuankun Yin until he died, and she thought that it would be okay, so she let this secret be buried forever.
After his death, his body was dragged to a mass grave and buried at will.
Someone saw that the monk's shoes were good, so he stole the monk's shoes and put them on himself.
This scene happened to be bumped into by Liu Ruyan, she bent down to pick up her shoes, and was suddenly stunned and stood in place.
Wrong, wrong, all wrong!
He raised the soles of his shoes, deliberately pretended to be lame, and took all the blame on himself.
It turned out that there was someone else behind the scenes.
"At the moment of the Great Dao, sacrifice is inevitable."
"It is enough for a poor monk to die for the country."
Liu Ruyan remembered what Kongjing had said, and was full of emotion for a while.
It was she who made a mistake and underestimated this person behind the scenes.
She leaned her back against the wall, held her breath, and slowly exhaled.
Fortunately, she still has the Xuankun Seal in her hand, and she has mastered the entrance to the Penglai Secret Realm, if she guesses correctly, the gold lord is determined to win the secret realm, and he will definitely attack her.
She wanted to see who the man really was.
As for the forces planted by the other party in Kyushu, no matter how big this net is, there will eventually come to the surface.
Liu Ruyan avoided the crowd and returned to her official residence outside the palace.
At present, she and Qiu Ying live in this small courtyard, Bai Zhi and Dong Qingxian went to "Yao Shengchen" as early as the beginning of the year, and it is time to come back.
Gong Yuyu used to pester her, a "little soldier" call, and recently, somehow, every time he bumped into her, he would walk around the bend. These days, he was locked up in the house all day, doing some carpenter's work.
Liu Ruyan was worried that foreign tribes would invade Hedong, so she stayed in Jinyang.
On this day, Qiu Ying got a set of red skirts and urged her to change them.
She was so urged that she had no choice but to dress up, put on a red dress and accompany Qiu Ying out of the house.
Qiu Ying took her by his arm and said as she walked: "You girl is pretty, the red dress is the most eye-catching, look at the girls opposite, I envy you very much." ”
Liu Ruyan said coincidentally: "It's one thing to look good, but it doesn't suit my identity." ”
Qiu Ying frowned: "What's inappropriate, is it appropriate to wear men's clothes to suit your identity?" ”
While the two were talking, there was a sudden sound of drums outside the city wall, and the sound was hurried. When the people on the street heard this drum, they all looked out of the city with frightened faces.
Liu Ruyan's heart sank, and her eyebrows wrinkled: "It's combat readiness, and there are enemy troops outside the city." ”
Soon after, she received information from the scouts: the Song army was divided into four routes and attacked Hedong.
Liu Ruyan immediately changed into a military uniform and entered the palace to receive the order.
Before leaving, Qiu Ying sent her out and told her a thousand times: "I said that you girl don't be reckless, in case something happens, it's important to save your life, you know?" ”
Liu Ruyan smiled and stepped on the horse: "I know." ”
After entering the palace, she realized that the enemy army was fierce and the situation was not optimistic.
This time, Emperor Song drove his own expedition and announced to the world: Hedong has long been obsessed with the king's order, acting unscrupulously, abusing the people, planning for the world, planning for Li Shu, and Song should ask for it.
When Emperor Han received the letter, he hurriedly sent envoys to Liao to ask for assistance from the Khitan army.
The Liu family scouts have been sent to the states of Hedong to reconnoiter the military situation.
Liu Ruyan and the hussar general Wu Guang guarded Jinyang together.
Wu Guang only recently learned that the emaciated kid in front of him was actually the first scout of the Han Dynasty.
Thinking of the previous president, his face was blue and white.
"I'm a fame." Wu Guang snorted coldly.
Liu Ruyan sat in the account and wrote without raising her head:
- Dong Qingxian and Bai Zhi are still outside the city, this time the war is urgent, remember to protect yourself, don't come to Jinyang.
- Gong Yuyu is good at woodwork, if he is willing to help, she should be grateful.
- As for Shen Yanchu.
Her eyebrows were slightly warm, and she put pen to paper: "I'm in Jinyang, everything is fine." ”
